Experts,

 

we have 2 levels of approvals, the first level of approvers list will pick from the AD group. I mean the destination user for that activity is AD group

 

Now we have a scenario that, if the originator is also part of that AD group it needs to skip that stage and need to directly go to the second level of approval.

 

Could someone guide us, how exactly we can achieve this?

 

Regards

Amar

One way I can think of it is with Rules.... when the Submit button Execute some ValidationRule

 

The Validation Rule will check for the conditions if originator same as Approver, then the next step will be to Start a Workflow in a Particular State jumping to the specific second level.

 

If The conditions are that are not the same, just call the Start a Workflow without any extra params for State.

 

 

Hope this helps.
